On May 16, 2017, the shareholders of Dorman Products, Inc. (the “Company”) approved certain amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-laws to implement a majority voting standard for uncontested director elections, eliminate cumulative voting and increase the maximum number of directors to nine members (collectively, the “2017 Annual Meeting Amendments”). The Company’s Proxy Statement for the 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Proxy Statement”), which was previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 3, 2017, described the 2017 Annual Meeting Amendments.

At the meeting of the Company’s Board on May 16, 2017, following the 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Board approved an additional amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated By-laws (“Additional By-law Amendment”).    The Additional By-law Amendment provides a new requirement for shareholders wishing to nominate a person for election to the Company’s Board at a meeting of the Company’s shareholders pursuant to the advance notice requirements set forth in the Company’s Amended and Restated By-laws. Specifically, the new requirement in Article II, Section 2-10(a)(ii) provides that the shareholder’s notice would need to contain a statement as to whether the nominee, if elected, intends to comply with all applicable corporate governance and other policies and guidelines of the Company applicable to directors and in effect during such person’s term in office as a director, including, without limitation, the director resignation provisions set forth in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Additional By-law Amendment became effective on May 16, 2017.

The foregoing description of the amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-laws is qualified in all respects by reference to the text of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, and the Amended and Restated By-laws, as amended, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

The Company’s 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (“Annual Meeting”) was held on May 16, 2017. During the Annual Meeting, shareholders were asked to consider and vote upon eight proposals: (1) to elect six directors, each to serve for a term of one year to expire at the next annual meeting of shareholders and until his successor has been elected and qualified or until his earlier death, resignation or removal; (2) to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers; (3) to approve, on an advisory basis, the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation; (4) to approve amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-laws to implement a majority voting standard for uncontested director elections (which Proposal 4 was contingent upon shareholder approval of Proposal 5); (5) to approve an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to eliminate cumulative voting in director elections; (6) to approve an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated By-laws to increase the maximum number of directors to nine members; (7) to approve the Dorman Products, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan; and (8) to ratify KPMG LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2017 fiscal year.

On the record date of March 17, 2017, there were 34,555,268 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. For each proposal, the results of the shareholder voting were as follows:

Broker Non-Votes for the election of directors totaled 1,817,499

A majority of the votes cast by shareholders voted, on an advisory basis, in favor of holding future advisory votes on executive compensation on an annual basis. Consistent with these results, the Company’s Board has determined to hold the advisory vote on executive compensation every year until the Company is required to hold another advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation, which will occur no later than the Company’s annual meeting in 2023.
